Abstract

The range of challenges that the WTO faces currently is very vast, and in this brief, we limit ourselves to only some of the major issues and challenges - the Plurilateralism debate, the Appellate Body crisis, the conflict between WTO rules and the global commons, Special and Differential Treatment (S&DT) and selfdefining status and Industrial Subsidies and State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs). We highlight some of the possible options that would help reform the WTO, for instance, ensuring WTOconsistent plurilateral agreements as a future course of action, encouraging adoption of measures like - graduation or self-determination to resolve the S&DT debate, and finally the importance of the political will of its member nations to and view these issues at a global level rather than being country specific.
